A fix
will make the world
bearable.
A transient voyage
into the ethereal realm
of thought.
An escape,
maybe;
seems more like
a release.
The majority fears the
unknown,
unable to step outside
their own
socialization.
All out war
on a harmless
plant,
has demonstrated peoples’
willingness to forfeit
freedom,
as well as logic.
Hiding behind morals
from well established
yet fabricated belief systems,
how could anyone truly
open their minds
to the world
around them.
There is no shame
in emulating those you
respect and admire.
Yet why suppress
your lifestyle
and avoid new
experiences,
only to reach your
six foot plot
to no advantage.
